Jira & Confluence MCP Server

Wiki / Tools

Jira & Confluence MCP Server

This server connects DMJBot to Atlassian Cloud — Jira (REST v3) and Confluence (v2). DMJBot can read and update issue descriptions and comments, create subtasks, read the parent/story context of an issue, and read/update Confluence pages. Plain text, Markdown and Atlassian wiki markup are converted to and from Atlassian Document Format (ADF) automatically.

What DMJBot can do

  • get_my_tasks — list your assigned, not-yet-done issues.
  • get_scrum_dashboard — show a board's active sprint, grouped by column.
  • get_task_description — read an issue description as Markdown.
  • get_task_details — get the full raw JSON of an issue.
  • get_task_story_context — read the parent/story context and sibling issues.
  • update_task_description — update an issue description.
  • add_comment / update_comment / get_comments — manage comments.
  • add_attachment — upload a file to an issue (optionally linked to a comment).
  • create_subtask — create a child issue under an existing one.
  • get_confluence_page / update_confluence_page — read and update Confluence pages by ID or URL.

Notifications

When monitoring is enabled the server polls Jira (via JQL — Atlassian Cloud has no webhook here) and emits:

  • jira_issue_assigned — an issue in the configured project is newly assigned to you.
  • jira_comment_mention — a new comment mentions you.

Pre-existing assignments are seeded on start and do not fire.

Authentication

This server uses Atlassian Cloud Basic auth with your account email and an API token — not OAuth, not your password.

  1. Create an API token at https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens.
  2. Note your Atlassian site URL, e.g. https://your-domain.atlassian.net (Confluence uses the same base URL).
  3. Have your project key ready (e.g. ENG) — it scopes notification polling.

Add the server

The Jira & Confluence server is bundled in the DMJBot catalog. Add it either in DMJBot itself or on a connected device:

  • In DMJBot: Settings -> Tools, add the Jira & Confluence server from the catalog, and fill in the configuration fields below.

  • On a device (bridge):

    dmjbot-bridge install jira-confluence
dmjbot-bridge configure jira-confluence
dmjbot-bridge start

You can run more than one instance (multiple Atlassian sites) — give each a distinct Instance Title so DMJBot can tell them apart.

Configuration

Field Required Default Description
Atlassian Site URL yes — Base URL, e.g. https://your-domain.atlassian.net (no trailing slash).
Account Email yes — Atlassian account email (Basic auth username).
API Token yes — Atlassian API token (Basic auth password). Sensitive.
Default Project Key yes — Project key (e.g. ENG); scopes assignment and mention notifications.
Instance Title no Jira Short label prefixed into the server name and tool descriptions so DMJBot can pick the right instance when several are loaded.
Monitor Jira no true Poll for new assignments and mentions.
Notification Interval (s) no 60 How often Jira is polled (minimum 5; ignored when monitoring is off).

Boolean fields accept true/false, 1/0, t/f.

Tips

  • The same credentials cover both Jira and Confluence; you don't configure Confluence separately.
  • If you don't want notifications, set Monitor Jira to false — the tools still work on demand.
